    There is vigorous construction going on here in Crescent Bay. On the other side, the many trading houses that followed them south are also beginning to spread out and radiate to the entire Nanyang region.

    We have already arrived in Nanyang. There are many islands here and many countries, large and small. There may be dozens or hundreds of countries in total. Of course, most of the countries are the same as Luzon, Sulu, and Brunei.  It is a small country, very small, occupying some islands and calling itself king.

    Siam and Annan are both big countries in Nanyang.

    There are so many islands and so many countries. This time, the large and small business houses that follow the south can each choose where they want to go, and then do business on their own.

    Once you reach Luzon, the danger is already very small. If you want to go to other places, you can go slowly along these islands. You can even go to the Indian Ocean, Tianzhu, Sri Lanka and Arabia through Malacca.  area.

    These trading companies came to the Nanyang area, and they all came here for money.

    The Luzon Kingdom is too small, and it obviously cannot eat the goods brought by everyone. Moreover, with the Crescent Bay being occupied, the Luzon Kingdom can be regarded as being destroyed. The remaining cities do not have much strength to eat much goods.

    So after resting for a few days at Crescent Bay, most of the ships left Crescent Bay one after another and sailed towards various places in the entire Nanyang region.

    On the Tianjin Ocean Trading Company side, Du Mingen left Lin Shuhong here in Crescent Bay to sit in and direct the construction work here, while he continued to walk west with most of the ships.

    He is more ambitious and is not satisfied with just doing some business and making some money here in the Nanyang region. To be honest, he wants to cross Malacca to Tianzhu and the Arabian region, and wants to visit here.

    Anyway, the condition of the fleet is still very good.

    There is land and country along the way, and all kinds of supplies can be replenished. In the past, everyone had contacts with each other.

    When the eunuch Sanbao went to the West, he also visited these places. The countries and regions along the way all knew about the Ming Dynasty and its richness, and they always had good relations with them.

    ????????? Those who are close to the Ming Dynasty and have been greatly affected, many are still vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, and those further away have also had friendly exchanges with the Ming Dynasty. If you have money, it is not difficult to obtain supplies, and you can travel westward smoothly.

    When I came back from Golden Island, I had already crossed the Pacific Ocean, and the Western Ocean was not that difficult.

    The vast fleet sets off from Crescent Bay, and there are still many people following the Tianjin Ocean Trading Fleet. Everyone feels that it is safer to follow them.

    The fleet headed west and soon arrived at their first stop, Sulu!

    The location of the Sulu Kingdom was probably located in the Sulu Islands area of ??the Philippines, which included the Sulu Islands, the Palawan Islands and the northeastern part of Malaysia.

    At this time, the Sulu Kingdom was an emirate that believed in YSL religion and implemented the sultanate system. The three princes who mainly controlled the power of the entire country were called the East King, the West King and the Dong King. Among them, the power of the East King was  maximum.

    Historically, the relationship between Sulu and the Ming Dynasty was very good.

    During the Yongle period (1417), the three kings of Sulu led their 340 family members and attendants to visit the Ming Dynasty across the ocean, and were warmly received by Emperor Yongle.

    On the way back to Dezhou, the Eastern King Badu Gebala died of illness. Emperor Yongle sent a doctor from the Ministry of Rites to rush to Dezhou with a memorial inscription, bury the Eastern King with the rites of a vassal king, and also gave him the posthumous title of "Gongding" and personally wrote the inscription (Tomb of the Eastern King of Sulu Kingdom)  ).

    After King Dong died of illness, his eldest son returned to the country to succeed the throne. The princess and the other two sons stayed in Dezhou to guard the tomb and settled down, and their descendants have been living in Daming.

    Sulu Island, the seat of the capital of Sulu State, is also the political and economic center of the entire Sulu State. Like Crescent Bay, Sulu Bay on Sulu Island is also a natural high-quality harbor.

    At this time, the fleet led by Du Mingen was heading towards the Sulu Port in a mighty manner. Hundreds of ships, large and small, were continuous on the sea with a magnificent momentum, which soon attracted the attention of the people of Sulu.  force.

    "Big ship~big ship~"

    "So many ships~so many big ships~"

    In the port, when I saw the mighty fleet approaching on the sea, I couldn't help but exclaimed.

    Such a large ship and such a huge scale were definitely rarely seen before, and it instantly caused a huge sensation in the entire port.

    Soon, the news reached Godara, the Eastern King, one of the three kings of Sulu Kingdom, so??Can't afford it.  "

    "We will go to Siam first and sell the goods we brought, and then we will bring agarwood, rhinoceros horns, ivory, gems, jade, coral, etc. from the Nanyang region back to the Ming Dynasty. Just come back one at a time."

    "As for the bigger and further market, let's wait until next year. We should first stabilize the Nanyang side and occupy the Siam route first."

    Feng Xiang shook his head without hesitation. It might be really profitable to go to Tianzhu and Arabia, but it would take too long and it would be unwise to seek the far away. The real thing is to eat it in your mouth first, and come back to eat more places when you have the opportunity.

    "Brother Feng is right. I actually really want to visit Tianzhu and Arabia. It was only after the Ming Dynasty that I realized that the world is really big, and I really want to go and see all over the world.  "

    "In this European area, I heard that our silk can be equivalent to gold, and the same goes for this porcelain. I don't know if it's true."

    "It shouldn't be wrong, Liu Jin shouldn't lie to others, but it's too far to go to Europe, so let's take it step by step." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
